Default Best Headphones for Workouts at the Gym

Hi All:

I'm looking for headphones to use primarily at the gym. I was looking at the Motorokr s9 headphones, but it seems that they don't work too well after being exposed to sweat according to most of the reviews I've read. I'm one of those folks who sweats alot when working out. What's my best option?

s9 has these little rubber covers and the ear bud set in your ears a bit so they dont get sweaty. unless u sweat alot inside your ears i guess. They need some hacking tho...in general they arent loud enough for me hack helped.

We also have the h820 they set outside but have cusion and cover...they are louder...but get all slippery..not my kinda workout headset.

I also have a pair of sony ear buds that when i feel i want it louder, like in the unlikely even i have to go work at 5pm. They are corded but so loud it keeps the plate dropping from distracting me lol.

im sure other folks have some input on this subject.

Default jaybirds

I would suggest getting a pair of jaybirds, excellent build quality and sweatproof, just wear them with a headband, they may make your ears stick out a bit.

I dont know about that a headband is something I have been able to live with out since about 1978. That's just me tho, I mean if you could see the image in my mind of me with a headband then you would agree haha.

Headbands are rad- bodysuits are sweet too, in addition to leotards. Just my $0.02!
